AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
This system automatically turns the headlights on
or off according to ambient light levels. To turn the
system on, rotate the headlight switch clockwise to
the last detent (AUTO position) for automatic
headlight operation. To turn the automatic system
off, move the headlight switch out of the AUTO
position.
NOTE:
The ignition must be in the ON/RUN or START
positi on
before the headlights will come on in the
automatic mode.
Dusk Sensor
There is an infrared LED sensor that works with the
rain sensor, located on the windshield. It detects
changes in light intensity outside the vehicle,
based on the sensitivity of light set by using the
menu on the display or on the Uconnect system.
The higher the sensitivity, the lesser the amount of
exter n

al light required for controlling the lighting.
To turn the dusk sensor on, rotate the headlight
switch
to the AUTO position. To turn it off, rotate the
headlight switch to a position other than AUTO.
NOTE:
The dusk sensor can only be activated with the
ignit i
on in the ON/RUN position.
PARKING LIGHTS
Rotate the headlight switch to the first detent to
turn on the parking lights. The parking light
indicator in the instrument cluster display will
illuminate.
HEADLIGHT TIME DELAY
This feature provides the safety of headlight
illumination for up to 90 seconds when leaving
your vehicle in an unlit area.
The time delay of the headlights is programmable
betwe e

n 0, 30, 60 and 90 seconds within
Uconnect Settings Ú page 133.
Headlight Delay Activation
To activate the delay feature, place the ignition in
t he OF

F position while the headlights are still on.
The delay interval begins when the headlight
switch is turned off from the low beam position.
If the headlight switch is in AUTO and the
headli
ghts were on before the ignition was turned
off, the delay interval begins automatically.
Headlight Delay Deactivation
The feature is disabled by turning on the
h eadli

ghts, the parking lights or by placing the
ignition in the RUN position.
If you shut off the lights before the ignition is
turne d

see Ú p

age 297 .
RAIN SENSING WIPERS — IF EQUIPPED
This feature senses rain or snow fall on the
windshield and automatically activates the wipers.
Rotate the end of the multifunction lever to one of
two detent positions to activate this feature.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted with
the mu

ltifunction lever. Wiper delay position one is
the least sensitive, and wiper delay position two is
the most sensitive. Place the wiper switch in the O
(off) position when not using the system.
NOTE:
If the end of the multifunction lever rotates from off
to the
first intermittent setting or from the first
intermittent setting to the second intermittent
setting, the wipers will perform a round up to clean
the windshield.

CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original
equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures
and warning have been established for the tire
size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable sys -
tem operation or sensor damage may result
w hen u

sing replacement equipment that is not
of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket
wheels can cause sensor damage. Using after -
market tire sealants may cause the Tire Pres -
sure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor to
b ecome

inoperable. After using an aftermarket
tire sealant it is recommended that you take
your vehicle to an authorized dealer to have your
sensor function checked.
WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when the
Transmission Temperature Warning Light is
illuminated you could cause the fluid to boil over,
come in contact with hot engine or exhaust
components and cause a fire.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission
Temperature Warning Light illuminated will

ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM (OBD II)
Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated
onboard diagnostic system called OBD II. This
system monitors the performance of the
emissions, engine, and automatic transmission
control systems. When these systems are
operating properly, your vehicle will provide
excellent performance and fuel economy, as well
as engine emissions well within current
government regulations.
If any of these systems require service, the OBD II
syste m

will turn on the Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL). It will also store diagnostic codes and other
information to assist your service technician in
making repairs. Although your vehicle will usually
be drivable and not need towing, see an authorized
dealer for service as soon as possible.
